2.4 DAILY WALK-AROUND INSPECTION
It is the user’s responsibility to inspect the machine before
the start of each workday. It is recommended that each
user inspect the machine before operation, even if the
machine has already been put into service under another
user. This Daily Walk-Around Inspection is the preferred
method of inspection.
In addition to the Daily Walk-Around Inspection, be sure to
include the following as part of the daily inspection:
Overall Cleanliness
Check all standing surfaces for oil, fuel and hydraulic oil
spillage and foreign objects. Ensure overall cleanliness.
Placards
Keep all information and operating placards clean and
unobstructed. Cover when spray painting or shot blasting
to protect legibility.
Operators Manual
Ensure a copy of this manual is enclosed in the manual
storage box.
Machine Log
Ensure a machine operating record or log is kept. Check
to see that it is current and that no entries have been left
uncleared, leaving machine in an unsafe condition for
operation.
Daily Lubrication
For those items pointed out in the Daily Walk-Around
Inspection requiring daily lubrication, refer to the Lubrica-
tion Chart in this manual for specific requirements.
Perform the following checks and services before attempt-
ing to operate the machine.
TO AVOID INJURY DO NOT OPERATE A MACHINE UNTIL ALL
MALFUNCTIONS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. USE OF A MALFUNC-
TIONING MACHINE IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
1. Start each day with a full fuel tank.
2. Ensure that all items requiring lubrication are ser-
viced in accordance with the Lubrication Chart in
this section.
3. Perform functional checks in accordance with para-
graph 2-5, Daily Functional Check.
